XBOX LIVESerial 78168881 · Principal Register
Dead · Cancelled
Owner: Microsoft Corporation
Class 009 - Electrical & Scientific Apparatus
Filed Sep 27, 2002
Registered Apr 12, 2005
The record shows that the mark “XBOX LIVE” was registered on the Principal Register by Microsoft Corporation but was cancelled on November 13, 2015 because the registrant failed to file a Section 8 declaration. The mark covered downloadable computer programs for playing computer games and video games over the Internet, computer programs for users to access and play online games, headsets, headphones, microphones, electronic devices for online game services, and devices that facilitate interactive gameplay over computer networks. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the area of online gaming software and related hardware. The record does not give Microsoft control over every use of the wording, only over the specific goods and services listed. The prosecution history shows a normal sequence of publication, notice of allowance, registration, and eventual cancellation, with no opposition or enforcement actions recorded. The latest meaningful event is the cancellation in 2015. For someone considering a similar name, the cancelled status reduces the risk, but the specific gaming‑related goods and services remain a potential concern.
Full event history, owner details, and verdict inside.
The way I'd use it, honestly, is as the thing you attach when a bank, a marketplace, or a co-founder asks "are we clear on the name". It answers in one page.
